Drake fans have been at the edge of their seats awaiting his eighth studio album, For All The Dogs. Marking his fourth album in two years, the Canadian rapper initially announced the project as a companion piece to his book, Titles Ruin Everything. In the months that followed, he hinted that it would arrive before the summer ends. In late July, he even suggested that the album would arrive on August 11th. However, the Boy never followed up with a confirmation and fans have speculated each week that the album would eventually drop on Friday.
It felt like a promising week for Drake to release his next album. He not only released the cover art for the project, courtesy of Adonis, but fans also began putting the pieces together. International Dog Day lands on Aug 26th, making the 25th a prime day for the Toronto MC to unveil his next album. However, it was a tweet from Amazon Music’s Twitter account that fanned the flames of anticipation. “Drizzy’s son has a future as a cover artist. New @drake august 25th!!” A since-deleted tweet from their account read. Billboard similarly claimed that Drake’s album would be dropping on the 25th, although they’ve since corrected their claims.

Drake Doesn’t Drop & Fans Are P*ssed
Needless to say, there’s a group of individuals that aren’t necessarily pleased that Drake didn’t actually release the album. The rapper never confirmed that the album would drop. Still, all signs pointed to an August 25th release date. However, at a recent concert, Drake also suggested that the album would arrive before his birthday in October, which seemed to mean that we might not receive the album for a few more weeks.
At this point, there’s still limited information on the album available but Drizzy’s shared a few clues in recent weeks. There has been speculation that J. Cole would appear on the tracklist after the Fayetteville native joined Drake to perform in Montreal, Quebec last month. Drake also confirmed that Nicki Minaj and Bad Bunny would appear on the project.
